Valky:
You are making perfect sense to me, I guess I can't really give any 
answer to that.
Peter was supposed to be in hiding and Sirius went to check on him, 
which does seem like a flinty notion, someone other than the *bait* 
should have been playing protector to Peter. 

I am painting JKR into a corner here, it was necessary for Sirius to 
be first on the scene for plot reasons, so lets just say that he was 
too cocky to know he shouldn't be playing both roles at once. How 
about that? :D
