Someone realized that something with multiple heads could be denied air in multiple ways at once, and just happened to have a captive hydra on hand, so they gave it shot. Helpfully for us, they've painted a number on each neck so it's easier to refer to them individually.
All three heads are bound in place with collars, and 1's collar is especially tight, to the point that it's strangling them and nearly entirely cutting off their air, only the tiniest chokes getting through. 2 has a plastic bag over themselves, and is the only one that can breathe freely, huffing and puffing the increasingly stale air. 3 is locked in a glass tank that was then filled with water, and has to not breathe, otherwise things would get way worse for all of them.
Ok I get that it's supposed to be science and all, but I feel so bad for this hydra that it has to put up with this... 1 and 3 I feel more bad for especially... but of course I'm still sad for 2...

*as all this was unfolding, Glacier the glaceon was walking around in the same area which is apparently some kind of laboratory where this hydra was, and when they happen to see them bound in place like this, they gasp in shock and horror*
Glacier - "What in the world?!?!"
(I cannot let these guys suffer!) *as all this was unfolding, Glacier the glaceon was walking aroun
"Oh my goodness! Hang on! I'll get you guys out!! Somehow..." *seeing as the plastic bag on Number 2's head is probably the easiest one to do for now, Glacier quickly grabs the bag and pulls it off of 2's head with ease*
"Oh my goodness! Hang on! I'll get you guys out!! Somehow..." *seeing as the plastic bag on Number 2
2 starts gasping harder than before, trying to quickly catch their breath before 3's willpower can run out. "Th-thanks..." Each head gradually goes back to its normal colors, though 1's recovery stops at being red.

"Let's see..." *Glacier manages to adjust the collar on 1's neck, making so its not as tight* "There that should help for now... is there anyway to drain the water out of 3's head?"
"Let's see..." *Glacier manages to adjust the collar on 1's neck, making so its not as tight* "There
"Right ok, hang in there 3!" *thankfully noticing 3 still trying to hold their breath in there, Glacier fires an ice shard at the glass tank, making it crack, then with a punch of his paw the glass tank shatters open*
"Right ok, hang in there 3!" *thankfully noticing 3 still trying to hold their breath in there, Glac
3 doesn't need to catch their breath, having been getting oxygen from the other heads breathing. "Nice, thanks! Now we've got to figure out how to get loose..."
1: "And quick, too, before the guy that set this up finds out..."

"I think I remember how to take collars off..." *getting to work, Glacier takes all of the collars off the hydra's head, neck and body...freeing them* "there you go! That should do it!"

"It was a good thing I was exploring this laboratory today, oh and your welcome...let's get outta here" *so the hydra and Glacier start to walk out of the lab, however before they could, the person who captured the hydra (a Groudon) was right at the entrance of the way out, looking rather displeased*
Groudon- "Well well well... look who managed to escape... and it appears you had some help" *he glares at glacier*
Glacier - "Uh oh..."
"It was a good thing I was exploring this laboratory today, oh and your welcome...let's get outta he
Groudon - "Shut up! All 3 of you! This was just gonna be a simple experiment, but you decided to escape, hmmph! And I don't need any of this talk, because I can simple do this!" *groudon presses a button and a hidden trap door opens, causing the hydra and Glacier to fall down into it* "Bye bye! Hope you enjoy our watery torture chamber! You stupid hydra and glaceon!"
Glacier - "Ahhhhhhh!!!!! Whyyyyy!!!!!
Groudon - "Shut up! All 3 of you! This was just gonna be a simple experiment, but you decided to esc
"You've gotta be kidding meeee!!!!!!" *after a minute of falling, the hydra and Glacier splash into a very deep looking water hole, thankfully Glacier manages to float and surface...for now at least... groudon's laughter echos through the hidden room*
"You've gotta be kidding meeee!!!!!!" *after a minute of falling, the hydra and Glacier splash into
"It did hurt, and I don't know how far down we are, but whatever this is, I don't like it! And I don't deserve this!!" *before anyone else can speak, something happens in the water and a whirlpool forms! It's super powerful, dragging the hydra and Glacier towards it*
"Ahhhhh!!! Oh jeez! The torture is starting!"
"It did hurt, and I don't know how far down we are, but whatever this is, I don't like it! And I don
"Im scared!!! I don't do well under dangerous situations!!!! Ahhhh!!!" *Glacier isn't even considering breathing deeply because he's so scared, the whirlpool drags them closer and closer to the center, threatening to submerge them*
"Im scared!!! I don't do well under dangerous situations!!!! Ahhhh!!!" *Glacier isn't even consideri
"I doubt it!" *Glacier clings onto the hydra, shaking with fear... the whirlpool then finally starts to drag the hydra and Glacier underwater, thankfully glacier's instincts told him to take a deep breath before they submerged, now visibly whimpering as he fearfully holds his breath in*

All three of the hydra's heads hold their breath, each puffing their cheeks. 1 and 2 look around the chamber for any possible way out, while 3 tries to sort of hug Glacier with its neck.

*Glacier definitely feels relieved as air gets into his lungs, smiling up at 3 as they hug their head... finally after a few more minutes of sinking the hydra and Glacier make it to the bottom, however... they are in some kind of large metal box that's thankfully draining out water when the door is shut, but there doesn't seem to be any way out...there's also a large speaker inside of the box as well*

Each of the hydra's faces is fully red now, and while 1 has returned to looking around for any sign of a way out, 2 and 3 are still saving their energy. 1 glares at the speaker, knowing what's likely going to be coming.

*the water gets fully drained out of the metal box, with some seemingly fresh air inside, finally a voice can be heard, it's groudon*
Groudon - "Haha! Welcome to the deepest depths fellas! I'm surprised you managed to make it this far down without drowning... no matter, cause your gonna be stuck in here for the rest of your lives! Oh and don't even think about trying to escape, your miles underwater and you'll just likely drown before making it back up! So goodbye forever!" *his voice disappears*

*Glacier hugs the hydra back* "It's no problem guys..." *Glacier looks at a small opening in the box, noticing a cave in the distance* "Well, even if we did manage to get out, there's some kind of cave over there..."
*Glacier hugs the hydra back* "It's no problem guys..." *Glacier looks at a small opening in the box
"Ok but even if you did, I don't think I'm gonna be able to get back out there! I'm way too scared! It's dark and deep and it's just gonna give me so much anxiety!"
"Ok but even if you did, I don't think I'm gonna be able to get back out there! I'm way too scared!
"Oh jeez... guys I can't go back out there...my body won't let me!!" *Glacier is clearly afraid, even tho he wants to escape and leave, he just can't bring himself to submerge again*

Zwei: "Having 3 heads does come in handy sometimes. We really like swimming, and we take turns acting as a snorkel!"
Ein: "Plus, always got someone to talk to."
Drei: "We've definitely had fights in the past, but we always get over them pretty quick. Don't really have much choice, since we're attached to the same body."

Drei: "We're cold blooded, so that probably wouldn't be too helpful."
Ein: "H-hey, um... The room's warming up a little." As they all stay in the box, the air is gradually being used up, slowly making breathing less effective...

"U-uh oh! I don't think suffocation is on my to do list!" *Glacier then thinks to himself for a second then sighs* "Ugh! We've gotta get get outta here! Even tho I really really don't wanna go underwater that deep, I've got no choice! *Glacier shakes with fear at the thoughts of that*

"Thanks for the offer... I guess it may help me out a bit...but I'm still so scared!!!" *Glacier looks at the hydra fearfully, clearly uncomfortable with this, but he does take a couple of deep breathes to get ready*

Drei: "I'm sorry, we just don't have time to help you calm down more than we have..." Each of the hydra's heads bites into the metal, starting to try to pull it apart while breathing deeply through their nostrils. Soon, water begins trickling in.

Zwei: "I suppose it's settled, then. Everyone get ready, I think it's time to do this." All three heads start taking deep breaths, but leave the box's walls alone, waiting to see if Glacier starts preparing as well.

Ein briefly stops attacking the box to talk. "Hold onto us, and close your eyes!" The flow of water is going quite a bit faster now, leaving only about 10 seconds before the box is entirely flooded.

With all the air gone from the box, the hydra keeps pulling on its walls, and after about 20 seconds they make an opening big enough to get through. They swim out with Glacier, heading toward the cave.
