What opening should I need to play with black?
Sort:
If i'm black, if White moves 1. e4, I always play 1. … e5 or 1. … c5, but this is boring. What you may know, I am an attacker. With white: 1. e4, or 1. b3 or 1. c4. But usually, 1. e4. I hate 1. d4, but with black, if white moves 1. d4, 1. Nf6, because I hate the Queen's gambit with black.

You describe the Sicilian as boring?
I don't know, but there is a lot of tricks against the sicilan for white.

And for Black, as well. That's what keeps it interesting.
I've been playing the Sicilian Najdorf for half a century.

If you want a solid opening, try the Caro-Kann too. (I am in the middle of learning the variations so there isn't the Two Knights variation, the Korchnoi, Karpov, etc.)

Bobby Fischer used to play the Two Knights against the Caro-Kann... but he was never notably successful with it.
Ivanchuk occasionally played the Fantasy Variation against it.

If you want to be active and play another variation, you can give the Caro-Kann Defense: Advance, Botvinnik-Carls Defense a try.
This is easy to defense the Caro-Kann for white. 1. e4 c6, and after this, 2. d4 is bad. 2. c4!
@blueemu, Sicilian is very good.
You should prepare your repertoire according to your own chess tastes and style. It is very important that you should like and understand the typical positions which result from your chosen opening. One good method consists of choosing, as a model, a strong player who plays your choice of opening particularly well and often, and then following his games. You study some model games in order, above all, to get a better understanding of the middlegame.
It's great playing against the London. Carnage when they play like this 5 mins blitz just finished.
I have 900 elo.
