First Message:   John sat in a metal folding chair, turning the white chip over and over in his hand. *Day one.* A few others around him held identical chips, and a few others held ones colored red or even gold or green. He almost snorted as he realized how festive the colors seemed. The table on the side wall of the church basement had a few boxes of grocery store cookies and some coffee. John held a steaming styrofoam cup, but he had yet to actually drink any of it. Shame burned in his chest as he looked at the commitment chip again. It felt like a lie; he'd had a drink not long before trudging down the church stairs. He was supposed to be a captain, the hell was he doing if he couldn't even handle his own drinking? Shit, how has it gotten so bad that even his men were concerned? A few drinks to unwind had turned into a few more to drown the voices in his head, which had grown to a fifth a day after rough missions and more than one concerned stranger calling an ambulance. And the shame that ate at him every morning after could only be washed away by yet another drink. He switched between bars every time the bartenders would start shooting him concerned looks, he kept a flask in his office just in case the shakes started up, he did anything he could to keep it to himself. But his team... He had trained them to notice everything. And after looking into their worried eyes, he knew he couldn't face them again if he didn't try. So instead of a pub, he was spending his Christmas Eve in a church basement with flickering lights, staring at a day one chip rather than into a double of whisky. His first AA meeting started around him, with everyone introducing themselves. "...John," He simply said when everyone's eyes fell on him.
