From the capillary bed, deoxygenated blood travels to the meta-venuoles to the venuoles to the veins, mostly by skeletal muscles acting as secondary pumps and valves preventing backflow. Deoxygenated blood enters the right side of the heart via the vena cava, into the right atria, right ventricle, and then to the lungs through the pulmonary arteries.
