If the seals aren't damaged, try reassembling the slave, and then filling the reservoir. Then do the bleeding procedure.

If it is damaged, I think you may be able to buy an aftermaket slave. The main part that is not available is the tubing.

EDIT:
Hmmm, Now the lines are available...

But they don't carry the master/slave.

Advance does tho.

ok so just push the plunger back into the cylinder, fill the res. back up and pump the cylinder up, then reassemble it to the trans and hope it works..

Hopefully. Since the system is supposed to self bleed, you should be able to reassemble/replace the slave, refill the fluid, and bleed it out.
