No Power?? Is there interior lights?? Possible starter failure. If you have power elsewhere and battery is ok and you can here a click that means that your ignition is doing it's job.

Well when I turn my key my dash lights come on and it dings it but when I try to start it it just clicks

My guess without being able to test anything myself would be a starter failure. Sometimes if you tap on the starter with a hammer you can get lucky and get one last start out of it, if that in fact is you issue. if you can get at it and remove the starter many parts stores are able to test them out of the vehicle to confirm.
