I once had a similar experience with a DD in the Med, I had to retreat to Tunis, yes, that's right, Tunis.
Once I knew I'd make port we duked it out on the surface. The, now late, HMS Whirlwind, was also out of depth charges. Lost one officer and three crewmen.
In this case, go with the suggestion Brag gave. I do hope you have some batteries left.
