Rapid and repeated clicking when the key is in the crank position is usually a sign of a dead battery. How did you check the condition or charge of the battery. If you have w volt meter hook it up to the battery and read the voltage when you try to start the car. It should not drop below 12 volts. If it does you have a battery that is low on charge.
Have you tried jump starting it?
One single click when you turn the key to the start position is usually and indication of a bad starter. More specifically a bad starter solenoid which is part of the starter. Usually you can have somebody hold the key in the crank position while you lightly tap the starter with a hammer and it will start to work. If it does replace it immediately.
It seems as if you have had a major electrical short in a main power circuit, for this to happen.I would take it to a auto electrician and have a test carried out.
