Well, if we're talking about braking symbolical chains, why couldn't 
it be Lupin? No, not wise-beyond-his-years mild-mannered human Lupin, 
I'm talking about werewolf Lupin. Lupin could have been keeping his 
werewolf form chained for years by drinking potions. That night when 
he forgot to take his potion, he may have accidentally allowed his 
werewolf form to brake those chains for the first time in years. Who 
is to say that werewolf Lupin, finally in control again, didn't run 
all the way back to his former master?

Not so much Dr. Jeckyll/Mr. Hyde, as Prof. Lupin/Mr. Moony.
