Get your car towed into a shop. You don't sound as if you are capable of replacing brake lines.

fill it up again and look for leaks

get a friend who knows hondas and have him look too

sounds like a loose brake line or possibly torn soft line which is an easy fix for anyone

fill it up park it in the drive way pump the brakes see if you can find the leak.... or check all four corners and see if you can see where there might have been some leakage master cylinder might be bad.

You're in NY right? I believe some of the brake lines underneath the car are metal, and in NY, they salt the roads in the wintertime and the salt eats through the metal. I'd start by looking under the car and see where the big wet spot of brake fluid is on the underbody.

Then I'd probably have a shop fix it. You don't want to rig up brake lines. If you want to learn how it's repaired properly, ask the shop.

the hard lines are coated so they should not corrode

they also have a cover that protects them from scratching
