My money's on Pettigrew.  Not that he wanted to be there at first,
but Voldemort..."insisted"...in his own unique special way that
Pettigrew come along.  It really is the kind of sadistic thing
Voldemort would do.

I think the plan then was for Sirius, having arranged to check on
Pettigrew that night, would do what he said in POA he did: get
nervous and go to GH to make sure everything was all right.  Except
that he would run into a triumphant Voldemort who would kill him. 
Peter would then be able to blubber to Dumbledore that he'd killed
Sirius in self-defense and out of rage at his betrayal of the
Potters.  Then Pettigrew could return to the Order and resume spying,
having proved his loyalty credentials...

Didn't work of course, but that was the plan.
