Hello,
Since the second scan taken at 9 weeks shows only 5 weeks of gestational age and with no fetal pole, it does not seem a viable pregnancy. It would be better to discontinue the pregnancy with a dilatation and curettage of the pregnancy sac. Following D & C you need to take a follow up USG scan to look for any remnants of pregnancy to avoid further complications.
I hope this helps,
