Default Car Won't Start

I took my car to the car wash today, washed it and went to start it and nothing. I put the igntion in the on position and i got a very dim "Air Bag" Light and an occasional blinking "SES" light. I put the ignition back into the off position with the keys in and it started making the chime when you leave your keys in the car when the door is open (the door was open) but very rapidly and the LED security like was blinking like crazy. I took the keys out after that and it was making a clicking noise from the glove box area. I thought maybe the battery was dead so i tried to jump it...nothing. Same deal. Anyone have any ideas? I'm clueless..

do you have another key to try? sounds like a VATs issue... usually it's either
1. Key is dirty (resistor in key)
2. little wires in the ignition broke from wear causing resistance value to not be sent to the BCM
