going
As a substitute for going, choose the most appropriate form of locomotion, i.e., running, sprinting, galloping, streaking, scampering, turning, moving, fleeing, collapsing, perishing
wants (some of these work as both verbs AND nouns) needs, wishes, desires, hopes hungers thirsts, needs, craves, lusts, seeks, misses, covets
to: toward, at, upward, inward, outward, onward (to)
they: this depends entirely on what "they" you are referring to.
You can only make these choices based on what you intend to say. You have to rely on your intention to get your result.

Headed to, leaving for, on one's way
desires, vyes,
can't really replace a preposition
would have to be replaced with the subject - who are they?
