Where did my clutch fluid go?

Hi Folks, newbie here.
After long winter layoff, dusted off bike and charged it night before. Next day bike started well put it into gear and she stalled. After few minutes of cursing noticed clutch cylinder empty. Currently trying to top up and bleed clutch line but curious as to where it went. No obvious leaks or paint damage etc. Changed engine oil before lay up but dont think that should be relevant. Worried it may be clutch pump and if so how can i tell for sure, hate to waste 100 bucks.
Thanks
 
Thanks Folks, much appreciated it. Had a superficial look at slave cylinder and no obvious defects or leaks, should I remove it?
 
check underneath it first - it will either leak at the banjo bolt - or if the seal has gone it will show on the bottom.

If you simply unbolt the slave cylinder without removing the clutch line it is possible to check the inside - dont pump the clutch lever though or it will pop the piston out.
