Clutch stuck in first.

I shifted from first to second and my car stayed in first gear. Now my car is stuck in first gear while my shifter moves freely between first and second. I can't get to any other gear or neutral. Looking at my shift cables, my roll pinned shifter moves and my secondary shifter wont budge. I don't know of it's lack of transmission fluid (I'm not sure how to check I just got the car not long ago and there's no dipstick) my cable is busted, or if my tranny just crapped out.

Pull the shift boot up and see if the cable came off the end of the shifter.

I have the shifter cables are still attached both at the shifter and at the tranny. One is just immovable.

Where you driving hard at the time of the damage?

Sounds like trans damage not clutch.

If you can move the shifter, and the end on the transmission doesn't move, the cable snapped. Replace them and see what happens.

If you wanted, you should be able to move the shifter levers on the transmission. Jack the car up so there's no load on the gears and see if it will pull out of 1st. It may be stiff but it should pop out and then the other side will move.
