Out of juice

Twilight stared at the book. This was a very odd spell and was unlike most. Not only that, but it could be altered. It was a spell meant to "Improve" the powers of the elements of harmony."That's odd," Twilight said in a high tone "Why is this spell directed to the elements?" "Don't know, but you should try it. It should come in handy.!" Spike suggested. "I don't know spike, it doesn't seem safe, but it came from the archives..." Twilight paused for a moments. What exactly were the elements powers specifically and would the spell improve the elements them selves or the holders? 'It has a counter spell in case of error...' Twilight thought "Okay, we can test it. I can reverse it." Twilight began the spell. "The elements, the elements, with hearts so pure. but with one little push, their feelings will stir. with hatred and fear take over the holders, all that it is left, is shell of their ...what? that makes no sense." Twilight said puzzled. It sounded weird to her and didn't make sense, but that was how the spell went and if it's in a book it is usually true. As she began to finish the spell chant a cloud of darkness and green smoke swirled around the library knocking over books and tossing furniture. Twilight was surrounded by an orb of pure purple and green, while everything outside was thrown, tossed, toppled... crushed. Twilight could hear spike screaming from a fallen tree branch that covered him. The clamor of explosion and destruction  shot out to specific parts of Ponyville. Twi did not pay attention to that, she was trying to get out to save spike. The wind roared as she cracked the layer of glass like matter. When she had escaped the explosion imploded toward her. "Spike!" Twilight yelped as the hurricane of black,green and red struck her "I'm over here!" Spike squealed. Twilight had dropped to the floor, reaching toward spike. then with no warning.

All of the dust of green and red fizzled. Showing all of the damage it caused. The wind went dead still. Twilight grasped spike in her arms. The spell was sure a doozy, It had destroyed the entire library, all that remained were Twilight, Spike, and the spell book. "Twilight?" Spike quivered "Yes, spike" Twi replied "What just happened..." Twilight tried to levitate some of the left over rubble and debris off of her and spike, but that spell had drained near all of her magic. "I don't..." Twilight grunted trying to stand up "Know." Twilight turned to the elements of harmony and gasped. The elements had turned dark and were glowing dark green and purple. This spell was quite unusual and had worked, but what did it do?
