Default Low Voltage on dash gauge

2006 C6/A6. So yesterday I was running errands, so I stopped and restarted the car around 3 times with no problems at all. On my 4th trip, I stopped around 10 houses down from mine to talk to a neighbor. I turned off the car. after about 5 minutes I went to start her up and nothing but a click. After multiple attempts, I turned on the ignition by holding down the start button. The dash lit up like normal but noticed I only had about 4-8 volts showing on the gauge. We used jumper cables to start me up. I went to sears for a possible new battery. They checked it and said it was fine with an 85% charge. So I got in the car, started it up and left. Took it out last night and this morning with no problems at all charging at 13-14 volts......ANY IDEAS??
