Well, I'd think that Wormtail hid it! Hagrid and Sirius were busy
grieving about James and Lily and arguing about who takes Harry, so
they didn't *notice* a little rat going away with a wand for a while.
However, Sirius probably *did* notice him after a while, so he gave
up Harry and the motorcycle to Hagrid and went after him.
Pettigrew then yells loudly, speaking as if Sirius had killed James
and Lily, casts that explosion spell (With his wand behing his back)
He cuts off his finger with the *same* spell, then does the rat-
summoning spell, transforms and runs into the sewer.
His concentration not at it's best, he only transforms with what he
had under his robe (where he kept Voldemort's wand)
He probably hid Voldemort's wand into the sewer, just in case he was
caught. He hears them arrest Sirius safely in the sewer while he
wonders how to get rest, food etc... Since Muggle's were involved,
Arthur Weasley might have come there in business... Probably he found
a little rat and decided it would be a nice pet for Percy...
