Most likely going to get F in the A by the dealership because my parents bought me the car and getting it fixed is going to be an issue with a part time job and college....also I have a sub in the back with an amp so they will say that caused it most likely.

That's unfortunate man. I was there (college/job/BROKE)...hopefully things will work out. Never know what will happen, just try to stay positive. There's too much good in life to focus on the negatives!

What is it doing? You said it wouldn't jump, but with the jumper cables on, did the lights come on? Was the battery completely drained?
Maybe listing some of the details could help us help you (in my best Jerry Mcguire voice)

It's a 2009 with 20k miles... is it still under warranty?

then me and a guy popped the clutch and it started right up, after like 10min I turned it off to see if it was charged and it did not come on. Then I got jumper cables and let it charge for like 20min...all the lights worked but it would not turn on it would just crank once and several clicking noises and then ford roadside assistance rolled up

When I first tried to start it all it did was click and the lights dimmed very low
