Solution

The correct option is C gone
The verbs that do not explain the tense of the sentence and do not agree with the subject are called non-finite verbs. Non-finite verbs are usually infinitives, gerunds and participles.
Option A - 'Have' explains the tense (present perfect tense) of the sentence. It is a finite verb. Hence, option A is incorrect.
Option C - 'To' is used as an adverb, infinitive marker and a preposition. As it is not even a verb, 'to' is not a non-finite verb. Hence, option C is incorrect.
Option D - 'Together' is an adverb and not a verb. hence, option D is incorrect.
Option B - Though'gone' is the past participle form of the verb, it is a non-finite verb as it doesn't exhibit the tense of the subject/action of the sentence. Hence, option B is the correct answer.
