was working in my engine bay, and was working on some cables and stuff and I was working with the battery. I dropped a piece of metal on the positive and the negative terminals and it sparked 2 big times, and I burned my fingers. I tried starting the car and nothing happend. Did I kill it or what do I do? I NEED YOUR HELP PLEASE!!

Could have buckled the plates, which means a new battery.

Damn! I just got a new battery 2 days ago. Is there a chance I could have damaged something else like fuses or alternator or something else? Could it have sent a shock through to the internal electronics in the car?
