Subject:How do explain this?

I know my master cylinder was going south on me and yesterday my girlfriend
called me to let me know that there was a large puddle of liquid under my
precious Westy. When I asked her under what part of the Westy was the puddle
she said it was kinda under the "wheelie thing" at the back. By that she
meant the rear axle. So if the master cylinder failed, broke or whatever you
would call it why would the brake fluid be there? Adding brake fluid to the
reservoir and pumping did nothing, peddle just goes right to the floor with
no resistance.
Thoughts please.
TIA,
