Default Car parked in gear overnight and no clutch fluid next morning?

i hardly ever leave my car in gear but i parked on a hill last night and left it in gear. i come to drive next morning and the clutch is grabbing all low. im curious while im driving and i pull over and see that theres no fluid in there. i do not remember seeing any fluid on the driveway so im curious where it could have went to? anyone have any ideas? its a 93 civic

Was there fluid in there prior to that? Leaving it in gear won't cause fluid to leak. Check the slave cylinder and the lines.

Check inside to see if the master cylinder is leaking also.

check all the hard lines from the clutch cylinder to the slave cylinder on the tranny. my friends greddy intake pipe rubbed on his metal line and he was losing brake fluid ever day untill we found the problem
