Intro:

I watched as the people around me acted as though nothing was wrong,even though people lay beneath them dieing because of their sins. As I left the room,sickened by the screams that only I could hear,I noticed another like me. The variety of us was few. All that was left was a disgrace to our ancestors. Stating that death is all there is we made a pact that for ever we shall live,but first we would look into the eyes of those who lay dead beneath us. That is how I got to being what I am. A beast that is neither dead nor alive. A soul that has no place in heaven or hell. A person with no limits. A Night Breather is what I am,and not matter the cause of my words I`ll always say that living is a deathwish.

"Medonyke!". His voice woke me from my daze.I looked up to see James running to catch up with me."You forgot to tell me what a night breather is," he said waiting for me to tell him exactly what I was."A night breather is neither a vampyre nor a witch or shape shifter.A night breather is all of those,left to spend an enternity in darkness." I said.James looked at me,a frown forming.I sighed and walked away.I looked back to find the other nightbreather,but he was gone.I heard the teacher yelling at me as I left the school.I couldn't take it anymore.As I walked to the Circle I realized I wouldn't be allowed to talk to the council without my parents.I turned around and headed home,but when I got there my parents were gone and Silver was laying on the floor covered in the blood of a True Nightmare.

Could use a little more substance. Readers at this point have no background of who this person is or what a Nightbreather is and those are the sort of things that need to be established pretty fast or else the reader is lost.

It sounds like it could be interesting, but you need a lot more detail and a lot more words. An introduction to a story shouldn't only be a paragraph. It should be a scene. You gave us no place, no time really and no sense of who your character is.
