It's a matter of appropriately formatting the output - the internal value is not changed:

x = bytearray(b'\x01\x02\x87\x0b\x1e\x9e\xc9\xde\xb7\n+\x92\n\x03\t')
print("{:02x}".format(x[0]))

gives correctly:

01

If you absolutely need to retain the bytes property, go for something like

y = bytes([x[5]])
print(y)

which will then give you

b'\x9e'
