Power Breaks Out and Engine Idle Higher

It is warm today and we were driving up a local mountain. On the way home we stopped for a bit downtown. After it sitting for about an hour we headed home and an animal darted across the road so I slammed on the breaks. They worked at first and then nothing. I heard a rather large clunk from the right side of the car near the front right brake caliper. It seems that the power breaking system has gone out. I also noticed the idle was about 900rpm-1000 after this. Normally it is about 500-600rpm. Does anyone have any ideas? I did some searching but I did not find anything relevant. Searches with the idle keyword gives idle only answers and breaks out returns nothing but breaks locking up.
A couple of other notes: No check engine light or abs light. I am leaning towards vacuum line leak but I have not seen or heard where it may be.
Thanks!
