[HPforGrownups] Why Did It Take So Long For Someone To Follow Harry?

When Harry goes after Bellatrix after she's killed
Sirius, why did it take so long for someone to follow
him? Lupin yells after him, but Harry declares he's
going to kill her because she killed Sirius. At this
point, I was under the impression that most of the
Death Eaters were incapacitated. Surely Lupin could
have followed Harry. It took awhile for Dumbledore to
show up and save the day.

I know the obvious answer is because we wouldn't have
had that great scene.

Or maybe Dumbledore wanted Harry to go after her
alone. Maybe he wanted Harry to grow up and learn to
fight on his own, to prepare him for future battles. 

Any ideas?
