before you write off the transmission being bad, make sure your shift linkages are still connected. If you’ve lost everything, there’s a chance the linkages have come disconnected either at the shifter base or off the transmission. With 130k miles, things wear out and break at very inconvenient times.

Checked your clutch fluid level? Slave cylinder could have gone bad. Throw out bearing might have an issue and not engaging. Any weird noises? Does it make a growling or whining noise with the clutch pedal pushed in?
What was happening or what were you doing when the issue occurred? Details help!
